Describe a player and guess who it is thread

[Omar 382]

This guy also was teammates with several hall of famers , like Fergie Jenkins, Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Nolan Ryan, Gaylord Perry

Orlando Cepeda?

This Phillies player came in 2nd in the rookie of the year voting in 1957. After that season was over, he got arrested for exposing himself to young girls (I am not joking!!) and plead guilty to a series of charges...sentenced to 3 years probation. Still played baseball until 1963! He died in 2013 and read a story about him.

We still have to get Cedrique's two players

Orlando Cepeda?

Ok, I'll give you a big clue. His son was a pretty good player as well

It must be Bobby Bonds

Give me a hint on the Yanks player (although there's a good chance I've never heard of him)

I had to look up who Bill Conlin was, and then rate your post as "Funny"

yeah, Conlin was the asshole that didn't vote for Nolan Ryan on his hall of fame ballot because his won-loss record was barely over .500

• Hall of Fame right fielder
• Was overshadowed by (and had a rivalry with) one of his teammates. This teammate is considered a top 5 baseball player of all time
• Born and grew up in Nebraska
• Holds the MLB record for triples with 309 of them

I would say Rich Ashburn but I think he always played Center Field

this guy played in the AL

 

[Cedrique]

Was Ty Cobb the rival?

 

[Cedrique]

It has to be a long time ago because no one hits that many triples any more

No. And Bill Clinton never played baseball either.

I'm having trouble with this one. Was he a pitcher or position player?
